Nice. Wish I had the tools and the hands to fix my own watches. The Daytona looks great, might buy one!

Thank you for the guide. However , is there a need to remove the movement?

i usually just take out the bezel, and install the new crystal.
There is no need to remove the movement on a clean Daytona, but I suppose removing it is the proper way, plus he ultrasonic the case.

You can use the Bergeron claw tool to grip the crystal and pull it off it doesn’t come off with the bezel (the stainless the bezel came off without the crystal).

From there you just mount and press new crystal, good to go.
